Welcome to the Tidewater Chapter of Virginia!

First topic message reminder :

Welcome to the newest chapter of USA fishbox!

Well we have a fresh start for everyone in the area. I don't want to divert from the main Virginia chapter too much but I think from here we can setup our own local meetings to allow people within the tidewater area to better connect.

I know we have a large group of people with many different taste. It is also a group clearly interested in furthering our abilities as aquarium keepers. This chapter will further allow us to expand on our hobby and share our ideas!

Let me just say now this is very welcome and I hope we can get something going that everyone will enjoy. I look forward to seeing more of everyone and hopefully expanding the chapter as time goes on!

For all the fish freaks in the Tidewater area you have a new home!

Im happy to see this chapter start up. Hopefully our 2 chapters can work together and put on a couple big meets a year. Good luck to you all and let us know if we can help in anyway.

Haha yea I got me some angels but hey I got Chompers and he balanced it all out right ?

Sorry Jd but we dont support or allow the selling of hybrids on USA Fishbox. (your flowerhorn) Sorry for the inconvenience.

Expand the hobby!

Alright! Finally off work, so my work can begin. I am highly motivated to get this chapter up and running, and we will. I'll be there Saturday for sure. If anyone wants to call and talk with me about any ideas for getting the chapter going or just ideas in general, you can pm me and I'll send you my number. I would like to start working some of the basic chapter stuff tonight if anyone has the time, all I have to do is a wc tonight so I'm not very busy. So excited!

If you are still around when I get off I would love to trade ideas with you. We can chat in the Chat room.

Sounds great when are you off work?

Like 930-1030pm your time. Depending on business.

I should be up so just pm me when you want to get on the chat.

Saturday is just a day that was thrown out there. I am going to meet who ever shows up. I am very interested in meeting others who share the same experiences I have raising fish. Spend time with your family/friends . I am pretty sure this isn't gonna be the last one. The Tidewater Chapter will grow before we know it (6 degrees of seperation). Any ways if you make it ,you make it.

It's my mother, stepfather and two of my youngest siblings coming in. We're taking just the kids to the BBQ later, and they really wanted to see Animal Jungle anyway, so it works out perfectly.

You've got mail.

So being bored I have been playing with a logo...

*The name can be Changed it's just what looked best, in my opinion*
What do you guys think?

Woah, are you an actual graphic designer or just a hobbyist? That actually looks really good. Very cool.

Eh I was just bored I wouldn't call me a hobbyist even, I just dabble every now and then. Glad you like it! Does the name work?

I approve.

First of all we need to get a "REAL" fish on our logo!!!!

Lol I agree. I spoke with Dan earlier and we discussed a few things the logo being one but we want all the opinions before we go with it.

Any recommendations would be much appreciated!

To all tidewater members please try to exchAnge info like email address/phone numbers so we can text or email each other to set up whatever or for just general info. If you would like my info please pm and I will send it. I can be reached anytime if texted or emailed.

In college at the moment for a degree in Graphic Marketing , so let me know if you need help but the previous logo looked pretty solid to be so I may just chill and let you guys get it done but feel free to ask me for anything : )

Really I didn't know that. I thought it was just marketing. Good to know maybe you can design different ones. The NFL has alternate jersey so i sure we can talk KMX into letting us have multiples.

Word. I'm a Freelance Artist and going to school for Digital Photography and Media Arts, and I think the logo is fine too. Not too shabby at all for just playing around.

Sweet. I have been looking into buying a new digital camera for taking photos of my fish , I will have to pick your brain about that.

Alternate logos ehhhh ...... Yes !!!! Finally I can use Megatron for at least a picture since he is a useless breeder .. oh yea forgot you took it upon yourself to rename him Megatrini haha

I'm telling you I think its a female. You never know with ebjds though.

So I have been playing with more ideas since some ppl *cough*flipper*cough*con seems to think it shouldn't just be a discus...
